Do you want to end state suppression? You should be a communist!

This Thursday, the UEA Communist Society will be hosting a meeting on state suppression.
Since the start of the genocide in Gaza, the Palestine solidarity movement has grown to unprecedented levels. Everyone is angry at the Zionist regime, and the Western hypocrisy that backs and supplies the Israeli militia.

Starmer and his cronies weep crocodile tears for Palestinians, but haven't suspended arms sales to the perpetrator of their genocide. They have introduced vast measures to ensure the solidarity movement in Britain is broken down, and proscribing Palestine Action - they are able to do this by using the police to arrest peaceful protestors.

The police have long been an integral part of the state apparatus which defends the interests of the rich.

We will be discussing the origins of state suppression and the police, and exploring a revolutionary alternative: if you want to end state suppression, then come along!
